Kamran Aman, who was a father of one, died in Barry on Monday night

Two teenagers have been charged with the murder of a 38-year-old man.

Kamran Aman died on Monday night, after police were called to reports of a stabbing on Barry Road, Vale of Glamorgan, just before midnight.

The boys, aged 16 and 17, from Llantwit Major, who cannot be named for legal reasons, have both been charged with murder and will appear at Cardiff Magistrates' Court on Thursday.

South Wales Police said they were not looking for anyone else in connection with Mr Aman's death and his family had been informed and continue to receive support from officers.

In a tribute, Mr Aman's family said he was a "devoted husband, a loving father, a cherished son, brother, uncle, and loyal friend".

"Kamran was the heart of his family and loved within his community," they added.

"Known for his, generous spirit, and kind heart, Kamran brought warmth and strength to everyone he met. His absence leaves an immeasurable void in the lives of all who knew him.

"As we grieve this unimaginable loss, we also honour and celebrate the life he lived and the impact he made. May his memory be a blessing."

Det Supt, Mark O'Shea said: "Our thoughts are with Kamran's family and friends, as they have been since the tragic events of Monday night.

"We would very much like to thank the community for the support and information that has already been provided."

Police said the investigation was continuing and asked anyone with information to come forward.
